Speed to the West: The Unseen Shots of 2017

Before we get to the end of year review, coming tomorrow, let's take a look at some of this year's shots which didn't quite make the cut, ending up in the archives, waiting for a chance to be published. Most shots weren't published for the usual reasons:

The lighting/loco performance/weather was poor.
I was caught out or I bodged the shot up.
Unwanted noise from road traffic or people.
The shot went on for too long.

There are a handful of shots, however, which are perfectly fine, but weren't published because:

They were throw away shots which weren't originally intended for publication in a main video.
I couldn't find a place for them in the main video.
They were a first take which didn't go as planned, requiring a retake. Alternatively the first take came out better, and so the retake wasn't used.
They were taken on the way to, in between, or on the way back from the filming of a main event, but didn't justify having their own video.
They were due to be used with additional material which, either, didn't happen, or wasn't really up to scratch, for various reasons.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this little selection I've put together.

Filmed on a Panasonic VXF990 - excluding the first 2 shots and any second camera shots, filmed on a Panasonic HS900 - with a Pro Sound L92AA microphone.
